Thanks Hot Text,
this problem for winSE was solved by creating the same user name on both
computers in control panel.

Now the other problem for winFE is still ongoing....I have ie6.0 installed,
but Ido not have a firewall or antivirus program that will work on win98FE.
I'm using Kaspersky on the win 2000 and xp ccomputers. Can anyone recommend
some goog software for win98 (before I update)?

Download Kerio PFW 2.1.5 and one of the rule sets for it. It should
work on Win98FE and the rule set should help with initial usage, though
you may not need the rule set if you are using the router for Internet
access so your main concern would be the local network and its
settings/restrictions.
You will likely need to use the Win2k or XP to scan for malware on the
Win98FE computer. SE still has a few, but those are diminishing.

You can try these:

SpywareGuard 2.2 and SpywareBlaster

SpyBot-Search & Destroy

I'm not sure but this MAY support FE in an OLDER version [available on
the site]
Spyware Terminator

Avast, though the def updates end this year and no updates to the 4.8
engine [5.0 for NT only].

ClamAV via clamwin.
